Sometimes it is useful to look at one part of a document while working on another part. For example, you may want to be able to see the column headings of a table whilst scrolling through the table. To do this, use the Fix Row command. Once you have fixed part of the document, you can move to another part of the document you want to work on. These settings are saved with the document.
Menu | Command | Cmd-sequence | Key |
---|---|---|---|
Layout | Fix row | LFR | |
Fix column | LFC |
With the Fix Row command, all rows from the top of the window to the caret will be fixed.
With the Fix Column command, all columns from the left of the window to the caret will be fixed.
The fixed rows (or columns) will be marked in the borders in a different colour.
To free the rows (or columns), give the command again.
